[bad to the bone]

What kind of oil should i get for it? Also how do u change it? I just want to make sure i do it correctly.

I use valvoline atv 10w40 but anything with wet clutch additive should work. With motor warm and tri moto on flat surface remove drain plug from under the left (when sitting on machine) foot peg. I think 17 or 19mm but I could be wrong. There is a spring and filter behind the drain plug so I usually just slightly loosen the plug slightly and let it drain before I remove anything. Do you have a manual?

I use 10w 40 yamalube in all of mine at 6.95 a quart or 21$ a gallon the way I buy it. I feel it is a fair price to pay and have never had a problem with the oil. It is a 19mm for the drain plug and dont forget to pull the oil filter which is on the right hand side and is circular with 3 allen head bolts holding it down. You can either was it out with gasoline or replace it depending on it's condition.

Forgot the filter was on the other side. Tri moto has been parked as have all of my trikes. Never any free time. The filters are pretty cheap, I usually buy 3 at a time and put a new one when I change the oil.

Agreed I run honda GN4 plus in all of my honda. That being said I've run regular motor oil as well with no ill affects either

[muthey]

I run yamalube in all of mine hondas included from my dealership, which is a honda/yamaha dealership he informed me that they are identicle oils, how true this is I don't know but the honda gn4 is more expensive.

So this kind of oil?I have some of this.
Is it for all-season use or just the summer and spring?
And no i don't have the manual.

I got my filters off of eBay. Your local dealer may also have them.

where can u buy an air filter(made out of paper not foam) for a 1985 yamaha ytm200ern?Also does it take 1.6 quarts of oil?

[Yamawheeler]

Haven't seen a paper filter for it only foam or fabric. If you included sleeve cover. Yes 1.6 qts yamalube always treated me good.

[Yamawheeler]

Uni filter for them has always been a good choice for me as well. Can mod the air box easily if you have a Dremmel and adhesive. I'm converting mine to have a 2" outlet for a 2" snorkel.

Yamalube is the lowest quality oil available.

Shell Rotella.

[Jmoozy27]
